Mara Sadé has confirmed she is now with AEW.
The confirmation came in the biography on her official website, which describes her career as “making her mark in WWE, TNA, and now AEW (All Elite Wrestling).” AEW has not announced the signing.
Sadé left TNA in early August after her contract expired. Fightful Select reported on July 29 that she had become a free agent and was talking to more than one company. She worked TNA’s July 31 tapings in Philadelphia without a contract, losing to Heather by Elegance in the quarterfinals of the Knockouts TV Championship tournament in her final match. TNA announced her departure on August 4.
Fightful reported that TNA increased its offer to keep her, and that sources in both TNA and AEW expected her to sign with AEW.
Sadé wrestled in WWE as Jakara Jackson, primarily in NXT, before her release in 2025. She signed with TNA that summer.
Her website also notes her appearance on NBC’s The Titan Games with Dwayne Johnson and a Vogue feature, and describes her as an actress and “award-winning visual artist.”
